(1962). The Token Test: A Sensitive Test to detect Receptive disturbances in Aphasiacs, Brain, 85, 665-678. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ TASK DESCRIPTION ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Participants are presented rows of rectangles and circles in different colors and are given visual instructions of what to do with these rectangles and circles (Example: "Click on the red rectangle"). The test has 5 phases (10 trials each) that are getting progressively more difficult. Note: verbal instructions are provided with the built-in Inquisit voiceover feature. They are turned off for the Spanish version. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ DURATION ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ the default set-up of the script takes appr. 5 minutes to complete __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ DATA FILE INFORMATION ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The default data stored in the data files are: (1) Raw data file: 'tokentest_spanish_raw.iqdat' (a separate file for each participant) build: The specific Inquisit version used (the 'build') that was run computer.platform: the platform the script was run on (win/mac/ios/android) date, time: date and time script was run subject, group: with the current subject/groupnumber session: with the current session id blockcode, blocknum: the name and number of the current block (built-in Inquisit variable) trialcode, trialnum: the name and number of the currently recorded trial (built-in Inquisit variable) Note: trialnum is a built-in Inquisit variable; it counts all trials run; even those that do not store data to the data file such as feedback trials. Thus, trialnum may not reflect the number of main trials run per block. trialcount_phase: number of trials run per phase itemnumber: the number of the currently selected item instructions: stores the currently selected instructions attempts: stores the number of attempts per trial (Max 2) response: the participant's response Note: lS_red = large square red; sS_red = small square red; lC_red = large circle red; sC_red = small circle red (etc.) R2C1 = empty cell of row 2 column 1 - R2C5 (empty cells below squares) - used in phase 5 only R2C1 = below red square; R2C2 = below blue square; R2C3 = below green square; R2C4 = below yellow square; R2C5 = below purple square R4C1 = empty cell of row 4 column 1 - R4C5 (empty cells below circles) - used in phase 5 only R4C1 = below blue circle; R4C2 = below purple circle; R4C3 = below red circle; R4C4 = below yellow circle; R4C5 = below green circle background = participant clicked the canvas and not any of the shapes 0 = noresponse correct: the correctness of the response (1 = correct; 0 = incorrect) latency: the response latency (in ms) of the data-recording trial points: stores the points for the current trial (0-2) phasepoints: stores the accumulated points for the current phase totalpoints: stores the accumulated points across phases repeat: 0 = the trial will not be repeated; 1 = the trial will be repeated (2) Summary data file: 'tokentest_spanish_summary*.iqdat' (a separate file for each participant) inquisit.version: Inquisit version run computer.platform: the platform the script was run on (win/mac/ios/android) startDate: date script was run startTime: time script was started subjectid: assigned subject id number groupid: assigned group id number sessionid: assigned session id number elapsedTime: time it took to run script (in ms); measured from onset to offset of script completed: 0 = script was not completed (prematurely aborted); 1 = script was completed (all conditions run) points_phase1- points_phase5: stores the accumulated points separately for each of the 5 phases (Max for each phase: 20) totalpoints: stores the accumulated points across phases (Max: 100) ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ EXPERIMENTAL SET-UP ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The test runs 5 phases: each phase is getting progressively more difficult Phase 1: a row of large squares (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) a row of large circles (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) 10 simple instructions such as "Click on the yellow square" - randomized order for each participant Each task has a predetermined time limit (see Editable Parameters) and can be repeated once Phase2: a row of large squares (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) a row of small squares (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) a row of large circles (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) a row of large circles (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) 10 simple instructions such as "Click on the large yellow square" - randomized order for each participant Each task has a predetermined time limit (see Editable Parameters) and can be repeated once Phase 3: a row of large squares (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) a row of large circles (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) 10 instructions such as "Click on the yellow square and the blue circle" - randomized order for each participant Each task has a predetermined time limit (see Editable Parameters) and can be repeated once Phase4: a row of large squares (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) a row of small squares (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) a row of large circles (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) a row of large circles (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) 10 audio instructions such as "Click on the large yellow square and the small blue circle" - randomized order for each participant Each task has a predetermined time limit (see Editable Parameters) and can be repeated once Phase5: a row of large squares (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) (empty row) a row of large circles (random order of colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow) (empty row) 10 idiosyncratic audio instructions such as "Drop the yellow circle on the red square"* - order is the same for each participant Each task has a predetermined time limit (see Editable Parameters) and can be repeated once * the original DeRenzi & Vignolo (1962) study uses 20 instructions; not all of these 20 instructions can be easily translated from a 3D-world onto a 2-D computer screen. Scoring in this script: Participants get 2 chances per trial. First Run: if correct 2 points Second Run: if correct 1 point Maximum Number of Points: 5 phases x 10 trials x 2 = 100 points ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ INSTRUCTIONS ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ see section Editable Instructions. By default, the instructions are presented visually (but can be easily exchanged with auditory ones). ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ EDITABLE CODE ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ check below for (relatively) easily editable parameters, stimuli, instructions etc. Keep in mind that you can use this script as a template and therefore always "mess" with the entire code to further customize your experiment. The parameters you can change are: /run_phase1: true = phase1 is run; false = phase1 is skipped (default: true) /run_phase2: true = phase1 is run; false = phase2 is skipped (default: true) /run_phase3: true = phase1 is run; false = phase3 is skipped (default: true) /run_phase4: true = phase1 is run; false = phase4 is skipped (default: true) /run_phase5: true = phase1 is run; false = phase5 is skipped (default: true) /instructionsduration: the time in ms for instruction trials (default: 5000) /phase1_timelimit: the time in ms for phase 1 task (default: 10000) /phase2_timelimit: the time in ms for phase 2 task (default: 12000) /phase3_timelimit: the time in ms for phase 3 task (default: 15000) /phase4_timelimit: the time in ms for phase 4 task (default: 18000) /phase5_timelimit: the time in ms for phase 1 task (default: 20000) /iti: the time in ms for the trials in between tasks (either next or repeat message) (default: 2000) /largesize: the size of the large items in canvas height percentage (default: 20%) /smallsize: the size of the small items in canvas height percentage (default: 10%)
